Great post Craig. I will have to do an earlier one and try and pick up some flyover Tree Pipits.

Although I dont think there is much chance of me doing that tomorrow after tonights planned meeting of the Lutley and Shenstone local patch bloggers society!

Fascinating stuff. I'm getting very little through the skies at The Scrubs though we did register a little movement from Tower 42.
